Woody finishes strong

Woody Williams, who is competing to remain in the starting rotation, threw two scoreless innings.

He gave up one hit and collected two strikeouts while doing an excellent job of keeping the Atlanta Braves off balance. He either induced a grounder or collected a strikeout, giving up the hit on a ball that third baseman Ty Wigginton almost kept in front of him.

Williams struck out Mark Teixeria to lead off the second and Jeff Francoeur to end the inning.
